For exactly the reason you stated: The Japanese cycle is completely inconsistent with driving conditions in the U.S. Thus, the percentage gain here will be less than what that cycle test produced for Japanese driving conditions... It's Apples and Guavas.

Of course, any percentage of efficiency improvement will be greater at lower speeds, which is reflected in the 2013 LEAFs increase to the 130/102 city/hwy MPGe* rating.
